Welcome to The Goose Is Out!

If you don't already know us, we run folk events at various venues just down the road from Goose Green and in or near East Dulwich, London SE22.

We have regular folk concerts, club nights and FREE Singarounds, plus we run stages at various community events during the year.

Thanks Everybody!

We've had a very busy weekend, with James Hickman & Dan Cassidy at The Old Nun's Head on Friday night, the Goose stage at the Dulwich Festival Fair on Goose Green on Sunday afternoon, and our regular monthly Singaround on Sunday night - plus half the Goose was DJing at a party on Saturday night!

Thanks to everybody, and particularly to The John McClean Band, The No Frills Band, Stuart Forester and The Dulwich Folk Choir led by Aimee Leonard, who all performed to a very appreciated audience on Goose Green.

STOP PRESS! Steve Tilston Concert UPDATE

The Steve Tilston concert originally scheduled for Friday 22 November has been postponed to 2014 at his agent's request.

The new date has now been confirmed as Friday 28 March 2014. All other details remain the same. If you had already bought tickets, you should have been contacted directly by now, but if you haven't please let us know.

Our apologies for any inconvenience, but this was out of our hands. New support artists are to be confirmed. In the meantime, please contact us if you have any queries.

Great News about The Ivy House!!

We are absolutely delighted to be able to tell you that the Ivy House is to be re-opened as a proper community pub! We received the following email:

"Dear All

We're very pleased to announce that we completed our purchase of the Ivy House on Friday. While this has secured the building's immediate future, we now really need your help to get the doors open again and get it up and running as London's first co-operative pub and community hub. Completion is just the start - there is much to be done before we can re-open and we need investment from the community to do it.

We have just launched our community share offer to enable you to invest in the building's long term future and own a stake in the Ivy House. To find out more, please go to our website - www.ivyhousenunhead.com - where you can learn about the share offer and how you can get involved in the project.

We're thrilled to have got this far. This is a chance for Nunhead to do something really special and we hope you will join us!

There will be plenty of opportunities to meet us and share ideas and plans for the building over the coming weeks so please keep in touch.

Team Ivy House"

If you have any questions about this, please contact Team Ivy House directly and not us, as we will not be able to answer them!

Fingers crossed that we will soon be putting on Goose gigs at The Ivy House again!

A Reminder

Can't believe we have to say this to our lovely Goose people, but hey sadly it seems that we must .....

If you bring your own drink into our venues, not only is it extremely rude to the pub who is providing the room but it may cause them to lose their licence - and us to lose another venue.

Anybody who we or the bar staff find drinking drinks which have not been bought at the bar will be asked to leave, and will be permanently banned from all Goose events.

Other Stuff ......

There is lots more information about us and the Goose on the website, please do have a browse around!
